is it going to replace custom apps for most companies? no, but it will be around for a long time for businesses and people who need a web presence on the cheap. hell, i make a nice side-living off coding custom themes for small marketing shops. easy-peasy work, and profitable. just don't go thinking you're going to get 10,000 hits a day and expect the site to stay stable from a server standpoint. you'll need some caching mechanisms. it's not the best underlying code, but it is getting much much better with time.
